WooCrafts Large-Eye Blunt Needles Yarn Knitting Plus Crochet Hooks Set with Case for Arthritic Hands, Ergonomic Handle. Best Gift!

I adore this crochet kit. A large set of ergonomic hooks in the more common sizes, a case full of yarn needles (no losing needles anymore!) and a small collection of stitch markers, all in a little handheld case! It's so convenient. The only thing it's missing is scissors, so I bought a small pair of yarn snips to put inside, and they fit in there just fine with the rest! The stitch markers are cheap and flimsy, but I haven't broken all of them yet lol, and the kit is still such good value that my roommate bought one for herself!

I was debating between this set and a far more expensive set (the Clove Amour hooks). But I decided that, for me, this would be a better deal. I'm between a beginner and intermediate crocheter. Plus, I get the tapestry needles and some stitch markers, both of which I needed to get anyway; it would have been an additional cost if I'd gone with the Clover hooks. And the little pencil pouch-like holder that comes with this is super cute. As far as hook quality, these are fantastic! I think they're better than my non-ergonomic aluminum ones. The handles kind of feel like they're silicon, so they're not a hard plastic, but they're firm. The metal hook is smooth, I haven't had problems with snagging - I've had the opposite, in fact. They glide through yarn beautifully. The ergonomic handle is such a relief for my hand. When I crochet with my aluminum hooks, I can really feel it in the wrist and the muscles of my last ring and pinky fingers, but with these hooks my hand has far less tension in it, which leads to wrist and hand pain. I think this is because these hooks are ever so slightly heavier than the aluminum hooks, so there's more balance going on in your hand when you're gripping the hook. I feel like my stitches are tighter and cleaner because of this. There were a lot of complaints about the numbers rubbing off. This is true; they do rub/chip off really easily. But as you can see in my pictures, they are STAMPED on the back with the number size. I wrote in the letter size (except for size 7/4.50 because that was already stamped). That really is not a problem. If you have trouble seeing the stamp, you can take a fine point Sharpie and just color in the stamp. Or leave it, whatever you want to do. Just don't worry about not knowing what size a hook is because the numbers wore off, because you don't have to :)

I purchased this set 4 years ago and crochet daily. I didn't know the brand and was just starting crochet after 40 years. They look like Clover Armour and I thought that was what they were until I looked them up today. These are great crochet hooks! I am intermediate to advanced in crochet. These slide easy, dont make me hands tired and I've used them on big projects from fingering to chunky weight, mostly dk or worsted.

I have ehlers danlos syndrome and rheumatoid arthritis so I wanted some ergonomic crochet hooks. these are decently priced but on the smaller hooks the size of the handle isn't very big. I wish they would have kept all the handles the same size, preferably even bigger then the biggest size. for the price there pretty comfy and they do the job. Although I could see the size relatively easy, on days my uvitis is bothering me more it was pretty hard to see so I decided to fill in the size grove with Acrylic paint. I put black in the brown and it did help but I thought the lighter blue I had would make it easier to read so I just washed the pain out (before it dryed) and put blue in there instead. all I did was apply the paint with a Q tip and then let it sit for about 30 seconds (even kinda taped it on the desk to let the paint seep in more ) then wiped it off with my thumb to push the pain in more and repeated till I felt it was evenly filled. most the time i did it at least twice sometimes 3-4. then wiped with a wet cloth to clean the handle and just let them dry :) doing it was rather fun in my opinion so I didnt mind. eventually I plan on geting different hooks but not for a while, I want to see if I can keep up with crocheting this time. I use to do it as a teenager but stoped do to hand pain. now that I got ring splints (from zebra splints ) I have found it's not as painful to crochet anymore and so I'm hoping I stick with it this time as I really enjoy it. if your a beginner these are a great set to start out with to see if u like crocheting. if you are experienced I would probably look for a different set that have bigger handles. I also noticed there are areas where the plastic is raised. I was worried they would cut my skin do to how fragile it is from having Eds but I haven't had that issue. it's more of just not pleasing to the eyesthen a real issue.

Bought these as a gift for my sister for Christmas and she's absolutely in love with them and uses them constantly. They make her hand feel so much better with the ergonomic handle. The storage pouch an added bonus.
